Smart Summary: A special type of bacterium has been created to produce more human albumin, a protein important for various medical uses. Scientists use a technique called CRISPR-Cas9 to edit specific genes in the bacterium, either by turning them off or boosting their activity. By knocking out certain genes like CCW14, EMW1, and PUN1, and enhancing others like EXG1 and SPR1, the bacterium can make more of the desired protein. This process helps increase the overall yield of human albumin produced by the bacterium. The advancements in gene engineering and microorganisms play a key role in this improvement. 🚀 TL;DR
A recombinant engineering bacterium for improving a yield of a recombinant human albumin is provided, which relates to the field of biological chemistry, particularly to the fields of gene engineering technologies and microorganisms. Targeted knockout is conducted on one or more genes of CCW14 gene, EMW1 gene, and PUN1 gene by utilizing a CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, and/or one or more genes of EXG1 gene and SPR1 gene are over-expressed and integrated into a strain of the recombinant engineering bacterium, so as to improve the expression level of the recombinant human albumin.

The present disclosure relates to the fields of gene engineering technologies and microorganisms, particularly to a recombinant engineering bacterium for improving the yield of a recombinant human albumin.
As a model eukaryote, yeast is simple in genetic operation, relatively complete in protein post-translational modification and secretion pathways, rapid in growth speed and low in nutrition requirements, and is suitable for large-scale high-density fermentation. It is found by studies on secretion expression of a large amount of different heterologous proteins in the yeast that the expression levels of different proteins vary greatly. Some heterologous proteins have a limited ability in secretion, thereby limiting the production efficiency of proteins. The improvement of a key gene for biosynthesis and secretion mechanisms of a protein through gene manipulation is a major means for improving the production efficiency of the heterologous protein.
As an important component of a yeast cell and a barrier for isolating cells from the outside world, a cell wall is capable of maintaining cell morphology, and plays a crucial role in cell growth, division, conditioned stress and cell fusion mating and maintenance of cell integrity, etc.
A yeast cell wall is mainly composed of mannoprotein, β-glucan, and a small amount of chitin. The β-glucan is a multi-branch polymer, with its main chain being linked by a β-1,3-glycosidic bond and branched by a β-1,6-glycosidic bond, so as to form a network structure. The chitin is formed by polymerizing N-acetylglucosamine through a β-1,4-glycosidic bond. The mannoprotein is first linked to β-1,6 glucan of the cell wall through a covalent bond and then linked to β-1,3 glucan through β-1,6 glucan, or directly linked to β-1,3 glucan. The chitin is also linked to a non-reduced terminal of a β-1,3-glucan chain through the β-1,4-glycosidic bond at a reduced terminal of the chitin, or indirectly linked to a β-1,6 glucan chain by using the β-1,3-glucan chain as a side chain.
Many studies have proved that changes in components and a structure of the cell wall may affect protein secretion. A cell wall protein gene CWP2 disrupting strain is constructed by using recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae for producing heterologous β-glucosidase as a starting strain. After fermentation for 96 h, the enzyme activity of extracellular β-glucosidase is improved by 53%, the intracellular enzyme activity is improved by 208%. Through the knockout of a cell wall-related protein gene DFG5 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the secretion expression activity of heterologous protein β-glucosidase is improved by 3 times. Through the knockout of a cell wall synthesis-related gene KIGAS1-1 in Kluyveromyces lactis, it has found that the thickness of the cell wall is reduced, and the secretion amount of exogenous protein xylanase B is improved. The above cases provide good examples for constructing the recombinant engineering bacterium highly expressing the recombinant human albumin.
The recombinant engineering bacterium of the present disclosure can significantly improve the yield of the recombinant human albumin by up to 238% and has wide application prospects.
One or more embodiments of the present disclosure provide a recombinant engineering bacterium for improving a yield of a recombinant human albumin.

In essence, for one or embodiments of the present disclosure, the recombinant engineering bacterium is prepared by the operations noted above, performed to modify, in some cases, Komagataella phaffii. A nucleotide sequence of the SPR1 gene is as shown in SEQ ID NO.7, a nucleotide sequence of the EXG1 gene is as shown in SEQ ID NO.9, and the recombinant engineering bacterium comprises at least one copy of a nucleotide sequence encoding the recombinant human albumin, and the recombinant engineering bacterium is formed by modifying Komagataella phaffii.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae may be used for preparing a recombinant engineering bacterium of a recombinant albumin. In the present disclosure, Komagataella phaffii CBS7435 was used for experiments.
In some embodiments, a biological company was entrusted to directly synthesize a nucleic acid molecule (SEQ ID NO.18) encoding a α-mating factor signal peptide from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a nucleic acid molecule (with a nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO.12, and an amino acid sequence encoded by the nucleotide sequence being as shown in SEQ ID NO.11) encoding a recombinant human albumin.
In some embodiments, the nucleic acid molecule encoding the α-mating factor signal peptide from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the nucleic acid molecule encoding the recombinant human albumin were linked to a plasmid pPICZA digested by EcoRI and NotI to form an expression vector named pPICZA-rHA (as shown in FIG. 1).
In some embodiments, the expression vector was linearized using DNA restriction endonuclease BglII, etc., Komagataella phaffii CBS7435 was transformed by electric shock or other methods, the transformed Komagataella phaffii CBS7435 were coated onto a culture medium (e.g., a selective plate YPDZ containing different high concentrations of zeocin antibiotics). The culture medium was cultured at a preset temperature (e.g., 30° C.) until colonies appeared, and positive transformants were identified by colony polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and then stored in a glycerinum tube.
In some embodiments, the genomic DNA of 4 randomly selected transformants was extracted with a yeast genomic extraction kit, and a real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was carried out by respectively utilizing vectors containing endogenous gene HIS4 and exogenous gene recombinant human albumins present in a form of single copy by using a double standard curve method. A standard curve was established based on results of the real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR, and the copy number of the recombinant human albumin in the genomic DNA of the transformants was detected.
In some embodiments, a double standard curve was established by respectively using a pPIC9K vector containing a single copy of HIS4 gene and a pPICZA-rHA vector containing a single copy of recombinant human albumin gene as standards. The copy number of a starting plasmid was 109, multiple dilution gradients were obtained by dilution according to a preset rule (e.g., 10-fold dilution, a total of 6 dilution gradients), and 2 parallel samples for each dilution gradient were used as an amplified standard curve. Each copy of extracted transformant genome was diluted to 10 ng/μL as a PCR template.
The fluorescent quantitative PCR reaction system was shown in Table 2, and specific nucleotide sequences of upstream primers and downstream primers were shown in Table 3.

In the embodiments, the cycle number Ct of each copy of transformant test solution was substituted into a standard curve (the standard curve of the HIS4 gene as shown in FIG. 6, and a standard curve of the rHA gene as shown in FIG. 7) to obtain copy number concentrations of starting templates corresponding to endogenous gene HIS4 and exogenous gene rHA in a genome. The copy number result of the genomic DNA of 4 transformants obtained by screening after transformation was calculated by a ratio of a copy number of starting templates corresponding to the exogenous gene rHA to a copy number of starting templates corresponding to the endogenous gene HIS4.

The recombinant engineering bacterium 9 with knockout of the CCW14 gene, the NCW4 gene, and the PUN1 gene and overexpression of the EXG1 gene and the SPR1 gene exhibits an optimal effect, the relative protein expression level of which reaches 238%.
The recombinant engineering bacterium constructed in some embodiments of the present disclosure can significantly improve the yield of the recombinant human albumin, i.e., the yield of the recombinant human albumin can reach more than 200%. Different from traditional methods that can directly improve a copy number of a recombinant protein-coding gene, the recombinant engineering bacterium of the present disclosure conducts knockout on the genes related to the components of the cell wall (such as one or more of a CCW14 gene, an EMW1 gene and a PUN1 gene) by improving the structure of the cell wall, and over-expresses β-glucan hydrolase genes (such as one or more genes of SPR1 gene and EXG1 gene) to cause a structure defect of the cell wall, thereby significantly enhancing a heterologous protein secretion ability of the recombinant engineering bacterium. The recombinant engineering bacterium exhibits powerful potential in improving the yield of a protein with a high economic value and has wide application prospects.
